IMPORTANT
On occasion, unusually small
ice cubes may be noticed in the
bucket or in dispensed ice� This
could occur in normal operation
of the ice maker� If happening
frequently, it may be an indication
of low water pressure or the
water filter needs to be replaced.
As the water filter nears the end
of its useful life and becomes
clogged with particles, less water
is delivered to the ice maker
during each cycle� Remember,
if it’s been six months or longer
since last changing the water
filter, replace it with a new one.
Poor quality household water
may require the filter to be
changed more frequently�
CAUTION
If the water supply to the
refrigerator is softened,
be sure the softener is properly
maintained� Chemicals from a
water softener can damage the
ice maker�
7.6 Ice maker/dispenser tips
• If refrigerator is not connected to a
water supply or the water supply is
turned off, turn off the ice maker as
described in the previous section.
• The following sounds are normal
when the ice maker is operating:
- Motor running
- Ice dropping into ice bin
- Water valve opening or closing
- Running water
• If a large quantity of ice is needed
at one time, it is best to get cubes
directly from the ice bin.
• Ice cubes stored too long may
develop an odd flavor. Empty the ice
bin as explained below.
• When dispensing cubed ice, it is
normal to have a small quantity of little
pieces along with the whole cubes.
• To avoid splashing, dispense ice into
the container before adding liquids.
•
It is normal for ice to fill to the top of
the ice bin.
7.7 Cleaning the ice maker
Clean the ice maker and ice bin at
regular intervals, especially prior to
vacation or moving.
1.
Turn off the ice maker.
2.
Remove the ice bin by pulling
straight out.
3.
Empty and carefully clean the ice bin
with mild detergent. Do not use harsh
or abrasive cleaners. Do not place in
dishwasher. Rinse with clear water.
4.
Allow the ice bin to dry completely
before replacing in the freezer.
5.
Replace the ice bin. Turn the ice
maker on.
Remove and empty the ice
bin if:
• An extended power failure (one hour
or longer) causes ice cubes in the
ice bin to melt and refreeze together
after power is restored, jamming the
dispenser mechanism.
• Ice dispenser is used infrequently. Ice
cubes will freeze together in the bin,
jamming the dispenser mechanism.
Removing Ice Bin
Remove the ice bin and shake to loosen
the cubes or clean as explained above.
